Patient's question:
Orchitis has been going on for a year, and I have only taken some medication.Doctor's answer:
Epididymitis is a very common inflammatory condition of the male reproductive system, mostly caused by Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus. It is divided into acute and chronic types, with clinical treatment typically focusing on anti-inflammatory and local therapies. Acute cases usually heal within 7-10 days. If treated promptly, this condition can be managed effectively. However, severe cases may affect fertility. It is recommended to check a semen analysis to avoid adverse consequences, such as infertility.
